okay then, i know its an odd one, but i dont seem to be able to find accurate answers...

Anyone know the kerb weight of my BMW 320i (E36) in standard SE trim?

EDIT: it seems i have found the answer (typical).. Its 1285kg - 1320kg depending on what spec it is. It should be lighter than that now, but i can use these numbers for my figures.

it should say it on a sticker on the car somewhere.

yeah i looked for that could not find it .. i did edit the post as i found it in a manual though..

Looking at about 230bhp/tonne on the maximum weight i listed above and only 300hp. If i can lower the weight and raise the hp, it should be a great car!

thats not bad, so a maximum of 2900 lbs stock, evos weight more than that. Oh, I dont know how you guys spell it on the other side of the pond but I believe its curb weight ;)

hehe .. well if i reckon i could get my car to maybe, lets see 1200kgs (i have zero interior), and i manage to hit 350hp, then i will be looking at 290bhp/tonne which is great! I wont need to aim for silly power after all.

This is why i was interested in the spec on the RS4.. mine will never be that cool, but its all interesting :)

And in the UK its 'kerb'bud ;)
